The biggest reason I was ragging him was that he was, apparently, to lazy
to provide a modicum of information; for instance, arriving by boat,
aircraft or parachuting in. How many people in the party, if more than
one, what are their nationalities. If on a vessel what are the most
recent port(s) of call: I'll bet that if he's coming from Havana, there
will be a few extra questions, if from Columbia perhaps a really thorough
examination/inspection.....


Duh! You can assume he's arriving by private yacht or he wouldn't be
posting to rec.boats.cruising. And, since he's posting from Surrey,
British Columbia one can also assume he is a long ways from Port
Everglades but to the north; not to the south. If he arrives via Cuba or
Columbia then he's an even worse navigator than Capt. Skip but I find that
hard to believe.

Also one can tell by his sentence structure and improper verb tense that's
he's a Canuck - i.e. speaks French and attempts English. As you can see
the poor dude really does need help. So, here is a link that even a Frog
might understand:

We'll see how good your grammar is when Spanish is the official language of
the United States.
Besides, those Quebecors play pretty good hockey..eh? (Montreal defeats
Boston to advance to next playoff round)
